Chapter 487 Heroes
Hong Zhong can indeed be regarded as a "hero". Every trip in the maze mission means great danger, and the elite team he leads has explored the crisis-ridden [Old World] several times.
Every time a great harvest has been achieved.
And this time the mission is over.
But the Fortress of Kilborg took compulsory "guardian measures" against him.
For the second team of the Investigation Corps, this is incomprehensible and intolerable. There have been conflicts between the two sides.
A total of eighteen superhumans from the White Lizard Investigation Team stood in front of the ward.
Yuan Yuan pressed the knife with both hands, exuding bursts of powerful extraordinary aura...
This aura posed a threat to Gu Shen.
The "vertical pupils" between Gu Shen's eyebrows faintly jumped up. Due to the suppression of the fighting golden hoop, it was not fully opened, but only slightly opened. After sensing the approximate range of the opponent's strength at a close distance, Chi Huo finally settled down again. .
This should be a four-stage transcendent.
Zou Hai, who was extremely tall, slowly stood up.
His voice was no longer soft.
"Master Lin Lin has already talked with your captain... When the results of the mental appraisal come out, there is no abnormality, you can take him away at any time."
Zou Hai also exuded his extraordinary aura.
However, it is different from Yuan Yuan.
His breath spread, enveloping the soldiers behind him.
The power of two fourth-order extraordinary people collided invisible in the air, vaguely forming a "field"!
Gu Shen silently took a step back.
This is a collision between the camps within Beizhou... He doesn't want to get involved, but he is just investigating the relationship between the legion and the fortress. It seems that it is not as harmonious as he imagined?
"The several generals in Beizhou each hold the supreme power of one legion... Except for the will of Her Majesty the Empress, theoretically speaking, they don't care about the will of anyone else."
Chu Ling also watched this scene through Gu Shen's "first perspective".
While enjoying the show quietly, she interpreted: "The survey legion is a special existence, and the chief of the survey legion has not yet been promoted to 'general'."
"The chief of the investigation legion...isn't he General White Lizard?"
Gu Shen was a little confused.
Yuan Yuan in front of him, wearing the white lizard epaulets, is already the vice-captain of the second team.
"The head of the investigative legion is a woman. The file is completely confidential. She is responsible for leading the investigation mission of the entire fortress. The entire federation does not know her information, but only knows that she is an extremely powerful woman."
Chu Ling said softly: "Beizhou completely concealed her identity, which seems to be the queen's intention, and because of this special arrangement, the investigation of the internal strength of the legion had to start from the rusty bone, white lizard, silver fox... these three Come under the command of a general to supplement."
"So... many of the elite transcendents of the investigation legion were drawn from the troops of the three generals."
Gu Shen vaguely understood.
The investigation legion, the most dangerous legion in Beizhou, is not one of them.
Most of the extraordinary people are lost here every year, and the casualties are outside the huge wall... Because of this, the gathering power of the extraordinary in this legion is declining year by year, and every investigation mission must be carefully planned.
Only with the backing of the three generals can we have the confidence to leave the giant wall.
"Hmm... It is precisely because the head of the legion has not been promoted to 'general', even the elite team controlled by her cannot wear the 'special epaulettes'. These ace teams all wear the epaulets of the legion they came from."
So... Yuan Yuan wears a white lizard on his shoulders!
This is an extraordinary person who was born under the command of General White Lizard!
"So, whose orders do they obey?"
"Entering the investigation legion is naturally ordered by the head of the legion... It's just that they were born under the command of a general, and if the general gives an order directly, they can't refuse. But the head of the legion seems to have reached an agreement with the three generals. The current investigation Legion, there is no such thing as a contradictory order."
Chu Ling paused, and then said: "The fortress on the border of Beizhou is different from the legion."
"Every fortress located on the frontier of Zhengyi has the right to make independent decisions. It only needs to accept the leadership of the queen. This is really a long front... Only the strength of three generals cannot conquer the border. Covering all. The power structure of the leaders of this fortress is much more complicated. According to the [Deep Sea] database, the power holders of the Beizhou Fortress include the royal family of the Central City, the four Dukes, and the record before the replacement of the throne. Xuanhe is stationed in the old department."
"Lin Lin... this surname can be stationed in Gubao..."
Gu Shen spoke silently from the bottom of his heart.
There is a high probability that they are the so-called Central City royal family.
From the moment he landed, he could see that Brigadier General Lin Lin had a very strong confidence, and he didn't even need to give [Apostle] face.
This is Gubao, the most prominent boundary of Zhengyi apex!
Any seemingly insignificant small crisis may magnify and become a disaster!
Lin Lin really needs to have this kind of "power". After all, this important throat fortress may face a sudden "order collapse" at any time.
……
……
Two extraordinary forces collided in the air.
Just when these two forces are about to form a "field".
"Master Brigadier General!"
A low voice sounded... The crowd retreated one after another.
Lin Lin walked out from behind the crowd with a blank expression on his face. He gently stretched out his palm to signal the soldiers under his command to back off.
And this extremely easy movement...
Tilted the power in the void!
"Hiss"——
An extremely light cracking sound sounded!
Yuan Yuan's expression changed slightly as he pressed the two sabers in his hands. His already condensed saber domain instantly broke open, and the next moment, the man in front of him seemed to have a huge turbulent wave, like the sea.
Yuan Yuan's pupils shrank.
He looked at this young garrison who was a few years younger than himself. This was actually the first time he met Lin Lin... Brigadier General Lin Lin of the Gubao Fortress, this young man with a mysterious file, has a great reputation and shocked the north. continent.
In the past few years, Lin Lin, who has been stationed in Gubao and promoted rapidly, has conquered most of the extraordinary members of the investigation legion with his strength, but there are always some people who are not convinced.
Yuan Yuan is one of them.
He has always wanted to come to Gubao to have a look. Is this rumored "young man" who is under 30 years old really qualified to be the garrison of the fortress?
Now...he saw it!
With just a wave of his hand, his "field" was torn apart? !
Yuan Yuan subconsciously pulled out his two sabers. He seemed to feel the opponent's majestic spiritual power coming like waves, as if he wanted to press himself down to his knees before he would give up.
And at this moment, his reaction was not to retreat, but to move forward.
This is the bloody instinct baked into the bones of every soldier!
Meet on a narrow road, the one who draws the sword wins!
Better die in battle than kneel down!
"boom!"
At this moment, Zou Hai's expression suddenly changed.
The originally fierce face instantly became even more ferocious.
How dare you draw your sword at the general? !
His huge body was just about to move when a tiny electric arc exploded. Lin Lin stretched out his hand and made a light pressing movement, and Zou Hai's body was held in place.
Zou Hai was stunned... This is Lord Lin Lin's intention to let him stand where he is without taking any action.
Your lord is going to... do it yourself!
"Whoosh" sound.
The distance between the two was not far away. At the moment when the two domains were shattered, Yuan Yuan's body turned into an arc of light, and the sound of the two long knives being unsheathed was extremely rough, as mighty as a river. After he touched the ground with his toes, he directly He slashed at Lin Lin with a knife.
The two spatulas are extremely terrifying.
Such as the big river draped.
Cut Lin Lin's shoulders straight!
Lin Lin raised his head, and his pace was very slow from the beginning to the end. He walked out of the crowd, walked behind Zou Hai, and then walked in front of Yuan Yuan... At this moment, he stopped.
The pair of knives were surrounded by fierce gangster energy, and exploded on his shoulders.
Gu Shen, who was very close, watched this scene with bated breath, the blazing fire opened up a tiny gap, twirling around...
In an extremely brief moment.
Lin Lin's not-so-tall body exploded into a fuzzy phantom. He stood still without moving a step. When the wind rose and the wind fell, the two terrifying sabers that locked his breath completely split through the air.
A light upward knee bump.
"boom!"
Yuan Yuan flew upside down, hit the ceiling with his back, and coughed up a big mouthful of blood.
He didn't see Lin Lin's movements clearly at all, and he didn't understand how the other party avoided his knife...
But Gu Shen saw all of this clearly.
"It's [Wan Shan]... a very skilled [Wan Shan]..."
The vertical pupils between Gu Shen's brows slowly closed.
He had a new understanding of Lin Lin's strength.
This young brigadier general with a mysterious file is quite powerful in personal strength. He should be a melee master comparable to Song Ci in terms of physical skills.
As expected of the garrison of Gubao Fortress.
Lin Lin...is fully qualified for this position.
The vice-captain of the second team of the investigative legion had already figured out his domain, but in Lin Lin's hands, he couldn't survive even one move.
It's not Yuan Yuanwei.
But Lin Lin is too strong.
With a sound of "dong", Yuan Yuan fell to the ground. His expression was pale. There were several comrades from the investigation legion behind him who wanted to help them, but he stretched out his hand to refuse them. Wall stood up, and he wiped the blood from the corner of his lips.
Yuan Yuan took a few deep breaths.
He clutched his lower abdomen... the pain here has almost dissipated.
He knew that this was the result of Lin Lin's mercy. The knee bump just now was just a small lesson, otherwise he might smash the floor and be embedded in the second floor.
"Dare to draw a knife against me, it is courageous."
Lin Lin looked at the man who stood up again, spoke calmly, gave him encouragement, and said, "However, your strength is too far behind. If you are facing a real enemy, you won't have a chance to stand up."
Yuan Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Under the brigadier general, no matter what the outcome is, at least... we will not abandon our comrades-in-arms, let alone treat the heroes who returned from the expedition like this!"
He looked towards the room locked by the sealed item.
A haggard man lying sickly in it.
"……hero."
Lin Lin said calmly, "Is he?"
Yuan Yuan was startled, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
He slammed his hand on the wall and asked loudly: "Hong Zhong and I have been comrades in arms for many years. We have been investigating the birth and death of the Legion together. He brought back the news of 'Oasis'. Isn't such a person worthy of being a hero?"
"Everyone in the investigative legion has seen that image!"
"A man who is mentally weak to the extreme, after dedicating all his blood, will be locked in the fortress and undergo a 'spiritual appraisal'... What kind of bullshit rules are these..."
Yuan Yuan's voice was hoarse, and he said, "Is his condition really acceptable?"
There was silence.
The eighteen transcendents of the investigation legion, dressed in snow-white linen robes, silently looked at the nearly hundred Gubao soldiers on the opposite side.
Both sides fell silent.
The whole Beizhou border knew about Hong Zhong, not just the second team of the Investigation Corps.
Everyone, the Beizhou Fortress, the nobles of the Central City, and the three generals...all the extraordinary people on the soil of Beizhou are paying attention to the latest progress of this incident, waiting for the news of the "oasis".
And this file is not classified, every transcendent can see the mental state of "Hong Zhong".
This is a man who burns out everything.
Judging from all the clues shown in the current case file...he is indeed a hero.
Deserved.
So after learning about the "Maze Mission", some people in Beizhou Central City expressed dissatisfaction with the military's approach, and some people posted protests on the Deepwater Forum. These waves of public opinion were nothing at all, but they intensified as time went on. A lot of pressure has been formed.
The returnee's spirit is too bad to be appraised, and the best way to deal with it is to wait.
So it can only be dragged on like this, forming such a repeated vicious circle.
"Are you finished?"
Lin Lin said softly: "After you finish speaking, please do what you want."
Yuan Yuan fell into silence.
In fact, he guessed it before he left, and this was the only answer he and his group could get in Gubao.
The accompanying investigative legion transcendents were taken away from this place.
And Yuan Yuan was brought to the observation room next door by Zou Hai. Adjutant Zou's voice was no longer as cold and stern as before, but regained his gentleness: "Wait a minute... When the appraisal results come out, you can bring him to the observation room at any time." people leave."
Yuan Yuan lowered his eyes and didn't say a word.
the other side.
The spiritual transcendents of Gubao Fortress are already in place... Spiritual appraisal actually does not require a strong skill, it is a technique that can be mastered by spiritual supernatural beings.
The biggest feature of this technique is that it needs to consume the spirit of both parties.
This also led to the fact that the level of the psychiatric appraiser must be higher than that of the person being appraised... Otherwise, the appraisal result is meaningless.
The man lying on the hospital bed was in extremely poor condition.
His consciousness is very drifting.
Like a lost person wandering in a dream.
Waking up and dreaming are out of control.
The Healing Sealed Artifact by the side of the bed was constantly emitting radiance, and the psychic transcendent in charge of the appraisal was waiting quietly. This was an experienced veteran.
All that needs to be done now is... wait for Hong Zhong to open his eyes.
Then hypnotize and fall into a dream together.
The instrument for measuring vital signs was beating smoothly, and Hong Zhong was slowly waking up under the glow of the sealed item.
The Transcendent cast a questioning gaze towards the observation room.
Lin Lin nodded, as if he had given an order.
"The psychiatric test... let's begin."
The moment Hong Zhong opened his eyes, his consciousness was in chaos. He was subconsciously recalling something important... Before he could report the success of the maze mission for the third time, he saw a warm glow.
That glow was as gentle as a mother's embrace.
at this moment.
His face, which was about to become anxious, gradually softened, and his facial muscles became relaxed.
He is being hypnotized.
"This psychic superman's methods are very sophisticated." Gu Shen observed silently, and whispered in his heart: "This way of dreaming is very gentle..."
"But the situation is not good."
Chu Ling said calmly, "Hong Zhong's vital signs fluctuated."
The smooth curve of the instrument produces fluctuations.
Looking at the instrument, the spiritual transcendent was a little nervous.
Although it is the easiest appraisal, it still needs to consume some mental power... This kind of appraisal is the same for anyone, but he is always worried about accidents, and he did not regain his composure until he saw the approving gaze from the Brigadier General in the observation room .
"You are now in the warm sea, in the embrace of light, don't be nervous, don't be afraid, relax..."
A guiding voice containing a gentle spirit blooms in the ward.
Hong Zhong's painful expression also gradually softened.
The life instrument returned to normal.
The psychiatrist breathed a sigh of relief, and he said softly, "Hong Zhong, you can let go of all your worries and tell what you have seen and heard... What did you encounter during the mission of Maze 38..."
This is the news that the Beizhou military is most concerned about!
What happened to Hong Zhong and that elite team?
"I……"
"I see, the sky is full of light, the melting snow, I see... an oasis..."
The moment these words came out, Yuan Yuan's eyes lit up.
In the dream state, it is absolutely impossible to lie... This means that the "oasis" that Hong Zhong talked about is not fabricated!
"anything else?"
The psychiatrist guided slowly.
"and also……"
Hong Zhong was startled.
His voice became trembling, and his emotions became agitated, and he said, "I also saw...they..."
"them?"
The psychiatrist asked softly, "Who are they..."
The curve of the instrument starts to fluctuate.
"Not quite right."
Gu Shen frowned. According to the file, the entire spirit of this elite team was broken, and after Hong Zhong returned, there was also a phenomenon of "fake death". The changes in vital signs are also the reason Gubao insists on doing a psychiatric appraisal. In the past few days, the curve of Hong Zhong's vital instruments has been flat.
And this time.
During the process of mental appraisal, Hong Zhong's breath of life fluctuated.
"Old Yao, Yuanzi..."
Hong Zhong's voice was hoarse, and he said the name of "them", which was the name of the teammates in the elite team...
His eyes became moist and cloudy tears flowed.
"I... I... I'm sorry for them..."
The second investigation team, the maze mission elite team, had a total of six people, five of whom died.
He was the only one left to return.
This is a survivor's miracle, but it is also a heart-wrenching elegy.
The curve of the instrument began to fluctuate, and the psychiatrist became a little anxious. He speeded up his speech. There are still many questions in this appraisal: "How did you complete the return, and what happened to the team..."
"Drip!"
"Drip drip!"
The instrument sounds an alarm.
The skinny man lying on the bed moved his head slowly. He lay on his side and looked at the psychiatrist.
Hong Zhong's eyes bulged like snake pupils.
The man let out his last breath.
"I'm sorry for them."
On the instrument, the life curve that began to fluctuate violently in just a few seconds.
At this moment, it is completely zero.
